10 January 2012 Dear Sirs ‘Plans for Places…after Blueprint’ consultation Part of the Winchester District Development Framework Core Strategy You may recall being consulted on earlier versions of the City Council’s emerging LDF Core Strategy, most recently the ‘Preferred Option’ version in May 2009. Since then the Council has been reassessing development needs and undertook a major public involvement exercise on this in late 2010, called ‘Blueprint’. The Council has now considered the many and varied comments it received to Blueprint and has used these to set out draft planning strategies for the whole of the Winchester District in its new document published for consultation - ‘Plans for Places…after Blueprint’ . This forms part of its emerging LDF Core Strategy. This consultation is undertaken in accordance with Regulation 25 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Development) (England) Regulations 2004 (as amended). ‘Plans for Places…after Blueprint’, does not include formal planning policies but highlights the many challenges facing the District and suggests a way forward looking ahead to 2031. It takes into account updated technical evidence and views submitted through Blueprint. In particular it uses revised population and housing projections to generate a new District-wide housing requirement. This is distributed across the District, focussing growth in the larger more urban areas, but acknowledging that many smaller rural settlements may also wish to be able to accommodate small scale appropriate development. We would like your views on our emerging planning policy. ‘Plans for Places…after Blueprint’, can be viewed on line at www.winchester.gov.uk/plans4places. To assist you to comment on the document we have created a series of consultation questions, the easiest and quickest way to access and complete these is online via the above web address. You may also download the questions and send them back to us via email (LDF@winchester.gov.uk) or post them to the address at the top of the page. Your comments need to be with us by 5 pm on Monday 8th August 2011. During the autumn we will then prepare a revised Core Strategy, in anticipation of publishing it in late 2011 and submitting it to Government for consideration in early 2012. Yours faithfully Steve Opacic, Head of Strategic Planning

Appendix E05 Press Release 27 June 2011

Plans for Places… after Blueprint –

Consultation launched

Winchester City Council is launching the next stage of consultation about what

development we should plan for over the next 20 years. Following the Blueprint

exercise, where communities from across the District told us how they wanted

housing, employment and community facilities to be provided in their areas, Plans for

Places is our response.

Plans for Places uses both community feedback and expert evidence (including new

population and housing projections) to set out the best options for development to be

set out in the Local Development Framework. The Council invites residents,

businesses and any other interested parties to comment on the proposals in the

document over a six week period from 27 June until 8 August.

The plan is split into three sections which reflect the characteristics of the District: the

rural area including the market towns; the urban areas to the south; and Winchester

town. There was much consensus in the rural areas and in the market towns about

what these areas need and want for the future. In Winchester however, there was less

agreement. There are two scenarios presented for Winchester Town, one if the Barton

Farm planning appeal is allowed by the Secretary of State, and one if the appeal is

dismissed. The plan has to address both scenarios, but recognises that even if this

current application is refused Barton Farm might still need to be considered as a

possible area for development, depending on the Secretary of State's conclusions.

Cllr George Beckett, Leader of Winchester City Council said, "We were really

pleased with the reception there was for the Blueprint consultation and the enthusiasm

of residents, businesses and community organisations in planning the future of their

areas. It demonstrates our commitment to localism but doesn't ignore the fact that we

can't simply say no to development if we want the jobs, infrastructure and housing

that successful communities will need in future years. We hope that people will take

the time to comment on this document and help us ensure a positive future for

Winchester District."

The document can be viewed on our website www.winchester.gov.uk/plans4places

and we have created a series of consultation questions for completion. Alternatively a

copy can be requested from the Strategic Planning team on 01962 848 101 or 01962

Plans for Places... after Blueprint

Following on from our very successful Blueprint consultation in 2010, we have prepared our response to it. We have taken into account all the many, varied and well structured comments we received through Blueprint, together with updated evidence and revised housing and population projections. The resulting document: Plans for Places….after Blueprint, will be considered by the Council’s Cabinet (LDF) Committee on 6 June, for approval for consultation during June/July. The committee report and draft Plans for Places (together with the Housing Technical Paper which assesses a range of housing/population projections for the District up to 2031) can be viewed on our website. Plans for Places Committee Report Plans for Places does not include all the detailed spatial planning policies that will be included in the next full version of the Core Strategy. These will be developed alongside policies on key topics, which are likely to cover similar matters to those set out in the 2009 Preferred Option, revised and updated as necessary. Consultation arrangements are in the process of being organised and a further newsletter will published when these have been confirmed.

Revised Local Development Scheme The Local Development Scheme sets out the programme for producing the Local Development Framework and was last published in 2009. Given all the changes that have happened in the interim, with the introduction of Localism and Government’s plans to revoke regional spatial strategies, it has been necessary to update it. The revised scheme sets out the timescale for the preparation of the Core Strategy and Development Management and Allocations DPD, together with a Community

Infrastructure Levy charging schedule. The details can be viewed on our website. Revised Local Development Scheme Details

2011Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA) Update The Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA) considers how much housing land could potentially come forward within the District over the next 15 years. It is an important part of the evidence base for the Local Development Framework as it identifies housing sites which are potentially developable and deliverable in the District and needs to be updated regularly. The SHLAA is not a document which allocates sites for development and nor does the identification of a site within the SHLAA guarantee that planning permission will be granted on that site. The deadline for returning site submission forms to us to consider in the 2011 SHLAA is 01 July 2011. If you want to submit a site, please use the site submission form which can be found on this webpage: http://www.winchester.gov.uk/shlaa or email ldf@winchester.gov.uk

Customer Service Excellence Accreditation – Strategic Planning Team

As part of the Council’s strive to offer improved customer services, each team is being assessed under the Governments Customer Service Excellence Standard. The Strategic Planning Team would appreciate your help with this and have created a short questionnaire based on how well you think we perform when we communicate with you and how well we respond to your specific enquiries – the questionnaire will take less that 10 minutes to complete and can be accessed at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Strategic__Planning

Blueprint responses - dealing with the 'non-planning' issues The Blueprint consultation exercise generated comments on a wide range of issues. Many of these will be used to inform the LDF documents that follow, but some of the issues relate to 'non-planning' matters. We expected this to happen and recognise the value of this information in helping to make our communities places in which people want to live. All of the comments are important and must not be overlooked, even where the Council has no direct part to play. We have identified and summarised all of the issues and will shortly provide each parish council with a summary for their area along with suggestions as to the appropriate mechanism for addressing the 'non-planning' issues. In the meantime if you need any further details on this matter please contact our Community Planning Team : slincoln@winchester.gov.uk

Although two separate meetings were held, very similar points were raised at both. Therefore this note aims to provide a brief summary of the issues raised, regardless of which meeting they were raised at. As the meetings were informal the comments are not attributed to particular people or Parish Councils. SO thanked everyone for attending and explained that the purpose of the meetings was to consult the Parishes informally on the policy being drafted for the next stage of the Core Strategy. The aim was for the Core Strategy to be approved by the City Council for publication by the end of 2011, but the subsequent consultation would just be concerned with ‘soundness’ issues. This was therefore an opportunity for the Parishes to check that the emerging policy covered the main issues and to suggest wording changes to make it more acceptable. SO explained the further work that had been done on overall housing requirements and how these were spilt between the 3 spatial areas. This had confirmed that the

overall requirement for 11000 dwellings over 20 years was justified and the Barton Farm inquiry Inspector had come to the same conclusion independently. The majority of housing requirements would be met in the most sustainable locations of Winchester, West of Waterlooville and Whiteley, with only the ‘residual’ 1500 allocated to the Market Towns and Rural Area. The reason this figure did not tally with the sum of the rural settlements requirements was because these had been developed form the ‘bottom up’, based on needs identified through Blueprint, whereas the 1500 figure was the residual of a ‘top down’ assessment. There were questions about whether the suggested housing targets for particular settlements could be adjusted to take account of other major developments nearby, provision in other villages, or ‘over-provision’ in other market towns. SO explained that the targets were based on the needs of each town/village and the principle that was being followed was that each village should meet its own needs. He clarified that the targets were for settlements, not Parishes. There was a suggestion that it was not clear enough that each area should meet its own needs and SO agreed to look at whether this could be made clearer. Criterion 1: There was much discussion of the housing target for the various settlements, with some accepting the figure and others suggesting it was too high. This was particularly because of concerns that there was inadequate capacity without releasing greenfield sites. SO explained that none of the settlements was so constrained that a ban on greenfield site development could be justified. In general the upper end of what some settlements may find acceptable generally corresponded with the lower end of the range proposed in the policy. The ‘brownfield sites first’ emphasis in criterion 1 was welcomed but there were suggestions that the wording should set a stricter test for greenfield development. Using words like ‘may be allocated’ and ‘particularly where’ should be tightened up – SO to look at this. There was also concern about reference to ‘infilling’ which may imply backland development – SO to look at referring to ‘development or redevelopment’ instead. Criterion 2: There was general support for maintaining the shopping, service, employment, etc role of the towns/villages, with the suggestion of replacing ‘strengthen’ with ‘improve’ – SO to look at this change. There was some support for the references to improving the balance between housing and employment and a suggestion that the importance of the economy to sustainability should be emphasised in the explanatory text – SO to consider. Criterion 3: There was general support for the intention of this criterion but a suggestion that the wording could be improved to make its intention clearer – SO to look at re-wording. Criterion 4: There was general support for this criterion. It was suggested that it should refer to ‘conserving’ identity, character, etc, rather than ‘respecting’. It was also suggested that it should refer to Neighbourhood Plans – SO to consider these suggestions. SO explained that the Core Strategy would deal with strategic matters, such as overall development quantity and location. Allocations in the market towns and villages would be made either through the City Council’s Development Management and Allocations DPD, or in Neighbourhood Plans. There was reference to the pilot

on Neighbourhood Planning that would be carried out in Denmead and how this could be used to inform both the DPD and other Neighbourhood Plans. At the end of the discussion it was agreed that the criteria were applicable to the larger settlements (B Waltham and N Alresford) as well as the smaller ones, so there was no need for two separate policies. SO and RH thanked everyone for their attendance and felt that they would be able to amend the draft policy to take on board most of the concerns. S Opacic 21.10.11
